Parkroyal Collection Marina Bay

PARKROYAL COLLECTION Marina Bay, is the first ‘Garden-in-a-Hotel’. Having written an article on the Parkroyal collection, I told myself, I personally had to experience staying in this hotel. We celebrated our wedding anniversary with a staycation in this hotel and what an experience we had. 

A warm welcome from the reception. After we checked in, we headed to St. Gregory spa and pampered ourselves with a spa therapy each, definitely enjoying a much-needed sanctuary from the daily stresses in life, right in the heart of the Marina Bay. 

Exploring the place after dinner. 

We were awed by the iconic cinematic architecture of John Portman and immersed ourselves with the melding touches of natures with beautiful design aesthetics. 

With a biophilic concept which celebrates nature, the hotel focuses on stylish and contemporary vibes that are brought to life through green innovations, biophilic design, iconic architecture, eco-friendliness and lifestyle experiences.

We definitely enjoyed our stay at Parkroyal collection Marina Bay. Thank you for the memories.
